Notes:· When formulating a selection recommendation, each of the probability estimates listed above should be
considered along with other data sources, such as an interview, a background check, and a polygraph.· The formulas used to estimate the probabilities listed above were based on the following samples: (a) 23,580
public safety applicants, (b) 3,390 police officers, and (c) 37,700 public safety applicants.· In the Profile Validity Indicators section, the T scores for the Gi and Cm scales are non-gendered and based on
a sample of 6,000 cases in the CPI community sample. The percentiles are based on a comparison sample of40,814 applying for the position of police officer/deputy/trooper. For the Gi Scale, very high percentiles areundesirable; percentiles of 90% or more are boldfaced. For the Cm scale, very low scores are undesirable;percentiles of 10% or less, are boldfaced. For the Validity Indices, the raw scores are non-gendered and basedon a sample of 2,000 cases in a CPI community sample. Raw scores that exceed the thresholds specified in theCPI manual are boldfaced. Percentile values -- which are based on a comparison sample of 40,814 applying forthe position of police officer/deputy/trooper -- are not boldfaced, even if they equal or exceed 90%.

* For each scale, the percentile value indicates where the test taker’s scale score falls, on a percentage basis, alongthe distribution of scale scores for the Applicant norm sample. For v.1, very high scores are undesirable. Percentilesof 90% or more (indicating that only 10% of the Applicant norm sample have scores as high or higher than the testtaker) are boldfaced. For v.2 and V.3, very low scores are undesirable. Percentiles of 10% or less (indicating thatonly 10% of the Applicant norm sample have scores as low or lower than the test taker) are boldfaced.

Selection Relevant CPI Items
Items endorsed by test taker
The items printed below were endorsed by this test taker as indicated by the T(true) or F(false) in the parenthesesafter each item. The percent following the T or F endorsement is the percent of police and public safety applicantswho endorsed the item in the same direction. Items printed in italics were correlated with substandard performanceon three or more police officer job function categories as rated by sergeants who knew the post probation officerswell. It is useful to discuss selected item endorsements with the applicant during the interview. This practice mayhelp individualize the suitability assessment, and will also serve to rule out mismarks or misunderstandings by theapplicant.
